Maud Allan
:''For the American film actor see Maude Allen.'' Maud Allan (27 August 1873 – 7 October 1956) was a pianist-turned-actor, dancer and choreographer who is remembered for her "famously impressionistic mood settings".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Maud Allan )〕 == Early life == She was born as Beulah Maude Durrant in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Sources give contradictory dates for her year of birth, ranging from 1873 through 1880. She spent her early years in San Francisco, California, moving to Germany in 1895 to study piano at the Hochschule für Musik in Berlin. She later changed her name, prompted in part by the scandal surrounding her brother Theodore Durrant, who was hanged in 1898 for the sensational murder of two women in San Francisco. Allan never recuperated from the trauma of this event which had an effect on her for the rest of her life. The execution was immediately followed by her abandonment of piano-playing and the development of a new means of self-expression in dance.
